_ _ _ _ _ _
[G] _ _ _ _ [C] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [G] _ _ I got your [C] letter _ _ today, _ _ and [G] I miss you all so much, yeah.
_ _ I [Am] can't wait to see [C] you all, _
_ [Am] _ and [C] I'm counting [G] the days, dear.
_ _ _ [F] I still believe [D] that there's gold _ [C] at _ the end of [F] the _ world, _
and [D] I'll come home [F] to [C] Illinois _ _ [Am] _
one [C] day [G] after _
_ [Gm] tomorrow.
[C] _ _ _
_ [D] _ [C] _ _ _ _
_ _ It is so hard, _ _ and it's cold here,
_ and I'm tired of taking [G] _ orders, _ _
_ and [Am] I miss old Rockford [C] town _ [A] up by [G] the Wisconsin _ border. _ _
But I miss you, won't [C]
believe, _ _ _ shoveling snow and raking leaves, _
_ _ [G] and my [C] plane _ [D] will touch down _ one day [G] after tomorrow. _ _
_ [C] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [F] _ _
_ [C] _ _ _ _ _
I close my eyes _ every night, _ [G] _
and [C] I dream that I can [G] hold you. _
_ _ _ _ _ _
_ [C] _ _ _ _
[G] They fill [Am] us full of lies, _ [G] and everyone [C] lies _ [A] _
about what [G] it means to be a _ soldier. _ _
I still [F] don't know how I'm [G] supposed to feel about [C] _ _
all the blood that's [F] been spilled.
_ _ _ _ Will God [C] on his throne _ [F] get me [C] back home _ [Gm] _
one [G] day _ after _ _ tomorrow?
_ [C] _
_ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ You can't deny the [E] other side [C] _ _ don't want to die [G] any more than we do.
_ What I'm [Am] trying to say is [C] don't they pray _ to the [G] same God that we do? _ _ _ _ _
_ _ Tell me [F] how does [G] God [C] choose? _ _
Whose prayers does he [F] refuse?
_ _ _ _ _ _
Who [C] turns the wheel?
[F] Who _ [C] throws the dice?
_ [G] _ On [C] the day after [G] _ _ _ tomorrow.

[C] _ _ _ _ _ _
[G] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ I'm [C] not fighting for _ justice.
_ I am not fighting for [Em] freedom.
_ [G] _
[D] I am [Am] fighting for [C] my life _ _ [Am] _
and [C] another day in the [G] world [F] here. _ _
[G] I just [F] do what [C] I've been told. _ _ _
We're just the [F] gravel on the road.
_ _ And only the lucky _ [F] _ ones come [C] home _ on [G] the day after _ _ _ _ tomorrow.
_ _ [C] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _
And the summer, _ [G]
it [C] too will fade.
[F]
And [C] with it brings the [Em] _
_ [G] winter's frost near.
_ _ _ [Am] And I know _ we too [C] are made _ [Am] of all [C] the things that we [G] have lost here. _ _ _ _
I'll be [F] 21 _ [C] today.
_ _ _ I've been saving all [F] my pay. _ _ _
_ _ _ [G] And my [C] plane _ will touch down _ _ _ on the day [G] after _ [F] tomorrow.
_ _ [C] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _
[F] And my [C] plane, _ [F] it will [C] touch down [F] _ on [C] the day after _ [G] _ _
_ tomorrow.
